Chapter Ninety-One: Lizard Star
The night of the lizard star is indescribably beautiful, the sky is densely dotted with stars, and the night stars are twinkling, but then again, only Chen Fei and Soli, who are new to the lizard star, have an interest in appreciation, and the lizardmen have lived for so many years, and they are a little tired of watching it.
On the third day, the crowd finally saw the bare grassland on the edge of the desert.
Chen Fei and Soli are still silently exercising on the back of the monitor lizard, it has been three days, and the skill has not yet been restored, but the two will not give up easily.
"Hiss ......"
There was a sudden commotion outside, and the two of them opened their eyes suspiciously.
"Two ancestors, it's not good, we have encountered a sword ant beast, the high priest asks you to stay in the tent and don't come out." Jebin Modo said urgently.
"Knife Antbeast!?" Chen Fei said in surprise.
"Yes!" Jebin Modo nodded heavily, his eyes a little panicked.
Chen Fei and Soli glanced at each other, and both got up, the two of them can be said to be the best warriors in the human race, and they don't know what it means to be afraid, but they are a little curious.
On the edge of the desert in the barren grassland, all the black oppressive areas are the great enemies of the lizardmen, the sword ant beasts, these monsters are as strong as bulls, in the form of ants, with eight legs, black all over, slender legs and feet as sharp as swords, and infinite strength.
According to a rough estimate, there are more than 400 sword ant beasts, each of which weighs four or five hundred catties, which is two or three times the weight of the lizard people. The high priest Sharmodo was straddle the war horse with a solemn face and personally commanded.
The two of them did not listen to Jebin Modo's advice, and jumped off the back of the monitor lizard and came to the foot of the Shirmo Doma.
"Two ancestors, this matter will be solved by the villain, please rest in peace with the two ancestors." Shirmodo glared at Jebin, blaming him for not taking good care of the two. Jebin felt aggrieved, it was simply because the two ancestors didn't listen to the advice.
"Old man Shi'er, don't be too busy getting mad yet, did these sword ant beasts descend from the fire cloud two hundred years ago?" Chen Fei glanced at the menacing sword ant beast and asked curiously.
"Well, at first we thought they were messengers from heaven, friends of our ancestors, but we didn't know that they multiply very fast and have infinite strength, and if we had eliminated them, they would not have caused danger to the lizardmen. Fortunately, the two ancestors came! We are saved! Shirmodo sighed bitterly, and saw hope in his eyes, because he believed that the two of them must have a solution.
Back in the day, when humans got off the spaceship, wore space suits, and dominated the lizard star with advanced weapons, no monster was their opponent, and Shi Modo had enough reason to believe that the two would not disappoint everyone.
At this time, the sword ant beast approached three hundred paces away violently, and Shi Ermodo didn't care about introducing anything to the two of them, and with a wave of his strange hand, the archers who were waiting for him quickly shot out the first row of arrows.
After a dense rain of arrows, only three or four arrows hit the most fragile neck of the knife antbeast, and most of the others were shot on their backs or heads, which did not bring fatal injuries to them, but stimulated their ferocity and accelerated forward. All at once, the distance between the two sides was shortened to two hundred steps.
After the rain of arrows in the second and third rows, the total number of fallen sword ant beasts was only about a dozen, but the distance between the two sides was shortened to sixty or seventy paces, and the archers needed to retreat to keep their distance.
With another wave of the high priest's strange hand, more than 300 knights stabbed into the swarm of sword ants like a poisonous arrow, turning into hand-to-hand combat.
Chen Fei and Soley's eyes lit up, this kind of cold weapon war that can only be seen in movies is happening alive in front of them now, and it feels very weird.
The two finally saw why these monsters are called knife ant beasts, these monsters like ants, their legs and feet are as sharp as blades, as long as they stick a blow on the war horse and the lizard man, the Ken family will leave a hole, and the power is infinite, if it hits, the war horse will be overturned, although the lizard man is twice as many as the sword ant beast in number, but it doesn't seem to take much advantage. The infantry was miserable, and only high-speed cavalry with archers hiding behind could make a difference.
The lizardmen suffered countless casualties, and Chen Suo and the others both picked up machetes and rushed towards the battle group at great speed. Jebin Modo also ran to catch up with the two. Shi Modo's eyes lit up, and he secretly wondered excitedly: the two ancestors are finally going to make a move!
If it was at the peak of their strength, these more than 400 sword ant beasts would not be enough for Sully to kill alone, but now their skills have not recovered, and they are all arm strength, even the weakest lizardmen are stronger than them.
The strength shown by the two of them made Shiermodo and the lizardmen warriors a little unbelievable, is this the legendary altar god!?
After nearly an hour of bloody fighting, the knife ant beast was finally repelled by everyone, leaving only a hundred or so to retreat in a hurry, while the lizardman paid the heavy price of killing 300 people and injuring 600 people, Chen Fei and Soli were covered in blood, but fortunately, neither of them was injured, and they desperately saved Jebin Modo's life.
Looking at the battlefield strewn with corpses, the two were so depressed that they silently faced each other, they never dreamed that they would fold under the mouth and claws of the little knife ant beast.
"Thank you, two ancestors, for saving your life! Are the two ancestors alright? It scared the hell out of me. Jebin Modo was shocked, he was almost poked a hole by a knife ant beast just now, if it wasn't for the two of them wielding the knife, his little fate would be over. But at the same time, like everyone else, he wondered in his heart why the two of them didn't use their divine power to destroy the sword ant beast.
"It's okay, alas, if people are unlucky, even ants are so arrogant." Chen Fei touched the blood stains on his face and said bitterly.
"Hmm...... The two ancestors are fine, and the villain went to help first. ”
Chen Fei waved his hand dejectedly.
In the evening, the battlefield was cleaned up, and there was actually nothing to clean, but the bodies were buried on the spot.
Shiermodo endured the suspicion in his heart and talked to the two of them.
"Old man Shier, what's wrong with you? If you have something to say, just say it. Seeing Shi Ermodo's sad face, and then looking at the strange gazes that the other lizardmen cast at him, Chen Fei greeted.
"Ancestor, this ...... Alas......"
Shakmodo wanted to speak and stopped, and bitter water was about to drip out of his heart. For the lizardmen, humans are not only the ancestors in their hearts, but also the main gods of the altar, if those nobles and commoners know that Chen Fei and Soli can't even handle a sword ant beast, wouldn't this be a big joke.
"Hey, don't spit out, don't worry, let the monitor lizard sit on the wounded, and we'll just walk." Chen Fei also thought that Shi Ermodo was worried that he and Soli would dominate the monitor lizard, which would make him embarrassed.
"Thank you ancestors, alas, only, all human beings are ...... now Alas, forget it, Jebin, give up two warhorses to the ancestors. "Shakmodus would have wanted to ask if the gods are as bad as you are? But in the end, I still couldn't ask, maybe there was a reason why the two adults didn't use their divine powers for the time being.
***
Lizardman Kingtown.
Under the towering city gates, flags fluttered, two teams of men lined up, and civilians were huddled together.
As early as a few days ago, there were rumors that the high priest of Shakmoda had welcomed two true gods under the fire clouds, and the news spread, and the lizardmen celebrated with the whole world, and people crowded at the city gate early to see the demeanor of the true gods, and even the cabinet ministers of the lizardmen came to greet them.
In the distance, I saw a group of people and horses coming straight towards the city gate, and the crowd burst into an earth-shattering sound. Some civilians were so reverent that they knelt down.
Seeing such a big scene, Shi Ermodo was really miserable for a while, in the end, the two true gods Chen Fei and Soli were too disappointing.
"Ah, true God!? How so?! ”
"Could this be a lie?!"
“……”
Seeing the tragic situation of the camp full of wounded people of Shiermodo and others, an incredible light burst out of the crowd, with the presence of the true god, how could Shiermodo and others be injured? It should be majestic!
"Here comes the High Priest!"
Shakmodoro rode his horse to the city gate and sang excitedly, "Our true God is here, people of God!" Since we encountered tens of thousands of hateful sword and ant beasts on the way back to the true gods, these hateful devils attacked us like a mountain of mountains, if it wasn't for the action of the two true gods, I am afraid we would not be able to come back to see you, in order to save us, the two true gods consumed great power, and we need to rest for a while before we can see everyone. Thank you for your understanding! "Shiermodo is quite good at bragging, obviously hundreds of sword ant beasts, but he was exaggerated by his old man into tens of thousands.
"Long live the true gods!"
"High Priest Chitose!"
"Destroy the Knife Antbeast!"
“…….”
The crowd shouted excitedly, the true god is indeed an idol, and tens of thousands of sword ant beasts can't help them.
After some explanations by Shakmodo, he finally persuaded several cabinet ministers to ask the true god for peace, and a group of people passed through the city gate without danger amid the cheers of the crowd, while the two idiot gods sat in the tent on the back of the giant lizard, and from time to time lifted the curtain and peeped curiously, which made Jebin Modo very nervous, and the most painful must have been the wounded warriors, who had to endure the pain while trying to pretend to be alive, in order to show how glorious it was to be by the side of the true God. In my heart, I have already cursed the eighteen generations of ancestors of Shiermodo!
The monitor lizard turned into the city, and if it were not for the warriors to open the way, the fanatical crowd would have taken off the underwear of the "true god".
The crowd finally arrived at the altar in the west of the city.
The mushroom-shaped white altar is built against the mountain, and it is magnificent and extraordinary.
When the true God arrived, the other six high priests led the congregation to greet them outside the mountain gate.
"Jebin, you take the two ancestors down to rest first."
After Shi Modo finished speaking, he dismounted and greeted the six senior colleagues.
"Shier, what's the matter with you?" The monitor lizard snuck into another mountain path, and one of the high priests asked puzzled.
"Alas, it's hard to say, let's go in and talk about it." Shiermodo smiled wryly when he heard this.
The grand welcoming ceremony is not enough.
In the secret room, when the other six high priests listened to Shakmodore's explanation, they realized the seriousness of the situation, and the true god couldn't even deal with a sword ant beast.
"Old Shier, you're not joking! How good is that? The king is also ready to see the true God, and when the time comes, he will inevitably ask the true God to demonstrate his divine power. A high priest was worried.
Shirmodo only has a bitter face. He also couldn't imagine that the true god who had always been enshrined at the altar would be so unreasonable.
"For now, the only way to do this is to kill them, and it's a hundred!" The other red-faced high priest gritted his teeth.
Kill the gods!? What kind of joke is this? The other six frowned.
"What can I do? You can't keep it a secret, can you? We can say that they are pretending to be true gods, but fortunately, the king has not yet seen them, and it is still too late to do so, once the king decrees to confirm their true god identity, it is useless to turn back. The red-faced High Priest asked with a roll of his eyes.
"Don't be busy jumping to conclusions, maybe the true god's divine power hasn't recovered for a while."
"But Lao Shi'er said that they don't have any artifacts in their hands at all!" The red-faced high priest is really determined to kill the two of them, and his so-called "artifact" must be a modern weapon such as a laser gun.
"But not only do they look like the true God, but they also speak the language of the true God." Shirmodo retorted.
"Could it be that they are the scum of the true gods, and their divine power has been sealed by the god of justice?" A high priest thinks he is wise.
"Shut up! How can there be scum among the true gods!? This is a great disrespect to my God, don't talk about it so much now, wait until you meet them! The eldest high priest rebuked.
The seven high priests in this side had a very headache, considering whether to chop the two of them as fakes, while on the other side, Jebin Modo was leading the two idiots to take a bath in the "holy pool" in the back mountain.
"Oh, Lao Suo, this spring water is really good, no wonder those broad guys don't have baths at home, they have to find some mountain springs to bathe, saying that they are returning to nature, and there are really some doorways." Chen Fei, the "true god", leaned against the mountain wall and sighed.
To put it bluntly, the holy pond is a pool of spring water, with an area of about 300 square meters, several small mountain springs along the mountain body are played dingdong, the surrounding mountains are quiet, and the pool water is cool, which is undoubtedly the most enjoyable for the two people who have gone through nearly ten days of desert wind and sand.
"Xiaojie, won't your brother come down to the bubbles?" Seeing Jiebin respectfully standing by the pool to look at the clothes for the two of them, Chen Fei really opened his mouth and invited.
"Chen Fei's ancestors don't know that only true gods are qualified to bathe in the holy pool, and villains don't dare." Jebin smiled.
The two true gods have no divine power, and Jebin Modo also knows it, although the true god of Soli looks cold, but Chen Fei really has no shelf at all, and he also gave a "red pearl" to himself. The two true gods also desperately saved their lives in the battle of the sword ant beast, and he was very grateful. He was the only one who was secretly worried about the situation of the two, unlike those old guys who wanted to slaughter the two for the prestige of the altar.
"So, humans used to come here to take a bath?" Chen Fei asked with a casual smile.
"Back to Chen Fei's ancestors, this little one doesn't know, legend has it that the true gods often come here to bathe when they first arrive at Lizard Star, and over time there is this 'holy pool', and the source of the 'holy water' in the main hall is this holy pool, and the disciples treasure it as a holy treasure." Jebin said in reverence.
The holy water is the bath water, Chen Fei was a little ridiculous, and then asked, "Those people ...... Are the things that the true gods used still there? ”
"Hmmm! There are many artifacts used by the true gods in the main hall! The largest one was about the size of a hill, but for some reason, no one could use an artifact, and the true god didn't teach us how to use it. ”
"Oh? How about taking us to see it? Chen Fei's heart moved when he heard this, the mountain-like artifact must be a spaceship, if the spaceship can still be used, he and Soli can leave this lizard star.
When Jebin heard this, he nodded his head, he also hoped that Chen Fei and Soli would use the artifacts left by the previous generation of true gods, and if the two of them could use the artifacts, their identities would be unquestionable.
